Apple: Don't Put Wet iPhones in Rice, Just Let Them Air Dry
• Putting wet iPhones in rice can allow rice particles to further damage the phone, Apple warns • Apple recommends gently tapping the phone to remove liquid, letting it air dry for at least 30 minutes, and trying to charge it periodically • Other common tricks like using external heat or cotton swabs are also not recommended • Simply air drying the phone for up to 24 hours is better than the rice soaking hack, experts say • If air drying for a day doesn't work, you likely need professional phone repair or a new iPhone
